Social welfare centres in Belgium, by city

For an integration-income request following loss of unemployment benefits, you typically need identity and bank cards, household-resource evidence, the ONEM (national employment office) exclusion letter and payment-body certificate, last amounts received, an updated CV, FOREM registration or a medical incapacity certificate, and job-search evidence. Confirm which documents apply to your case. The social worker may request more evidence and a home visit forms part of the investigation. Keep the request receipt. If you are affected by unemployment exclusion, apply from the end of your entitlement; no advance approval is given before that date.

Ask your worker which case-specific papers to bring and explain any existing request. If this is your first Tournai CPAS (public social welfare centre) application, use central reception at Rue de la Citadelle 118, Monday–Friday 08:30–11:00 without an appointment; first-request information is +32 69 88 45 28. The Gaurain CPAS session is currently suspended at its district building during works and takes place centrally on Wednesday 08:30–11:30 instead.
